How to troubleshoot no display, pulse frequency, or active status signal on SICK FLOWSIC600 Measuring Instruments?
If the SICK Measuring Instruments show no display, pulse frequency, or active status signal, it might be due to a faulty power supply. Check the input voltage at terminals 1 and 2, and inspect the cables and terminal connections, taking necessary safety precautions. If the issue persists, the device may be defective.
What causes different speed of sound in the individual paths in SICK Measuring Instruments?
The different speed of sound in the individual paths in SICK Measuring Instruments is caused by a faulty transducer or electronic module.
Why is there an implausible speed of sound in my SICK Measuring Instruments?
The implausible speed of sound in SICK Measuring Instruments indicates that the gas composition, pressure, or temperature measurement is incorrect. Therefore, check gas composition, pressure, and temperature.
What does the yellow light for any Data-Log "full" mean on SICK FLOWSIC600?
The yellow light for any Data-Log "full" on SICK Measuring Instruments means that the DataLog in question is configured to "blocking" and is full of entries. Check the DataLog whether the DataLog is to be configured as "rolling".
What does the red light for any Logbook "full" mean on SICK FLOWSIC600?
The red light for any Logbook "full" on SICK Measuring Instruments means that the logbook in question is configured to "blocking" and is full of entries. Download and check all logbook entries. Clear the meter logbook. Consider reconfiguring the logbook to "rolling".
What does the yellow light "Logbook contains unack. entries" mean for SICK Measuring Instruments?
The yellow light "Logbook contains unack. entries" on SICK Measuring Instruments indicates that the logbook contains unacknowledged entries. Download and check all logbook entries.
What does the yellow light "Check request" indicate on SICK Measuring Instruments?
The yellow light "Check request" on SICK Measuring Instruments means that one or more paths have failed, or another problem affects the measurement accuracy.
What does the red light "Path failure" mean on SICK FLOWSIC600?
The red light "Path failure" on SICK Measuring Instruments indicates that one or more paths have failed.
Why is the yellow light "User Warning Limit exceeded" on my SICK Measuring Instruments?
The yellow light "User Warning Limit exceeded" on SICK Measuring Instruments indicates that a User Warning Limit was exceeded. You should check the User Warnings.
What to do if the red light "Measurement valid" is on for SICK Measuring Instruments?
If the red light "Measurement valid" is on, it indicates that the measurement is invalid or the meter is in Configuration Mode. If the meter is in Configuration Mode, switch it to Operation Mode by choosing "File / Operation Mode" from the menu.
